T-Ball - 10 or 11 players
Farm - 10 or 11 players
Minors - 11 or 12 players
Majors - 11 or 12 players
Intermediate - 11 or 12 players

how are the teams made? Can I request to play with a friend?

Minors, Majors and Intermediate are competitive divisions and are formed by a coaches draft, so teammate requests are not available (sibling requests will be accommodated). T-Ball and Farm are not competitive divisions, and we do our best to honor coach/teammate requests. Please request teammates when you register. We will NOT accept requests after teams have been formed.  We generally try to group kids by school so that they are playing with friends/classmates. *Requests are not guaranteed.  We do our best though.

T-Ball - 1 game per week on Saturdays only
Farm - 1 game per week on Saturdays only
Minors - 2 games per week. Either a Tuesday or Wednesday & Saturdays.

When/Where are the Practices?

T-Ball and Farm practice at Harloe Elementary. Minors, Majors and Intermediate divisions practice at the Soto Sports Complex. The practice schedule is set by the coach.  Typically, teams will have one or two practices per week.

The practice schedule set by our coach doesn't work for us, can we switch teams?

No, we are not able to move players to different teams to accommodate practice schedules.

Can I sign my player up to be a pool player?

For Minors, Majors and Intermediate divisions, we have a running list of pool players. This is a great way to get your player more time on the field. Learn more.

What equipment do I need to purchase? What is provided by the league?

The league provides each player with a jersey and hat. We also have sets of catchers gear for each team and bats (although most kids have their own bat).   You will need baseball pants, protective cup (boys), socks, belt, helmet, glove, *cleats and bat.  Hold off on buying pants, socks and belt until you are assigned to a team.  Your coach will advise you on what color to purchase. *Metal spikes are allowed on the field, but CANNOT be worn on pitching mounds.

What bats are permitted for Little League?

As of January 1, 2018, the new USA Baseball Bat Standard was implemented by Little League International. USABat Standard bats must be used in the Little League Majors Division and below. Either USABat Standard bats or BBCOR bats must be used in the Intermediate Division.  Click here to learn more.

What's the difference between Little LEague and CAL Ripken Baseball?

Both are great programs for youth baseball players and both are offered in our baseball community!  There are a few key differences:

  • Age Range for LL is 4-13, vs. 4-12 for Cal Ripken. Cal Ripken is a division of Babe Ruth Baseball. Babe Ruth is for ages 13-18.
  • Field size is slightly smaller for LL than CR. (Except at the Intermediate level).
  • Little League has a "mercy" run rule.
  • In Little League, runners cannot lead-off bases until a pitch crosses home plate. (except in Intermediate division)
  • Because there are no lead-offs for baserunners, there are NO balks called in Little League. (except in Intermediate division)
  • Little League has a World Series at the end of the season that culminates in Williamsport, PA. To compete in the World Series, teams must advance from their Division, their Section, and then their Region.
